LIVERPOOL (ENGLAND) (ITALPRESS) – “I’ll speak to Salah today; our conversation will determine his call-up for tomorrow’s match. I understand you’ll continue asking questions, but I have nothing else to add other than that I need to speak to him and that, in any case, there have been many conversations between us and meetings between our directors and his representatives over the past few days.” This was Liverpool manager Arne Slot‘s statement on the eve of the home match against Brighton regarding the Salah situation.
The Egyptian was not called up for the Champions League match away to Inter (a 1-0 victory for the Reds at San Siro) following his comments following the latest exclusions. While awaiting decisions on Salah, Slot explained that Chiesa, after missing the trip to Milan, will be available for the match against Brighton.
During today’s eagerly awaited press conference, the Liverpool manager explained that the decision not to call up Salah for the Champions League match away to Inter was his and the club’s. “We made this decision in agreement with the club. Obviously, we discussed it because it’s up to me to decide on the team,” Slot said, also reassuring: “I have no reason not to want Salah to stay with us.”
